A word about the experience
Love for my Filipino culture, heritage and its preservation through food. Passion to share it with new people. Salo, derived from “Salu-salo” which means a dinner party, is designed as a gathering of the curious ones, adventuring for deeper understanding of native feasts.
It was borne from the realization that, despite the rising popularity of Filipino cuisine, it is not fully represented outside of the country. I aim to raise community and cultural awareness through food. I will creates a dinner experience that is carefully orchestrated to showcase the dialogue between dishes: how the flavors and textures interact; the sequence and flow; as well as the interaction between the diners, as they’re exploring the Philippines through their palates.
